This compact two-bedroom lodge sits on a generous plot within Billing Aquadrome and has been recently refurbished for immediate occupation. The layout offers an open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge, two bedrooms and a single bathroom, with off-street parking and a small decked area overlooking the lawn.
Important practical facts: the property is leasehold with only around 25–26 years remaining and a high annual site/service charge of £6,700 (covers water and council tax). Lenders often refuse mortgages on short leases, so cash buyers or specialised lenders are the most likely routes to purchase. The site has a high flood risk and very high recorded crime for the area — these are material considerations for buyers.
Heating is by an LPG boiler with radiators and the lodge is of modern park-home construction (built 2007–2011). Broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal. The accommodation will suit someone wanting a low-maintenance retreat or holiday use, and its newly renovated condition reduces immediate refurbishment needs but does not change the lease, service charge, flood or lending risks.
Buyers should check the remaining lease terms, site rules and insurance arrangements carefully, and obtain specialist mortgage and flood-risk advice before committing. The property is offered chain-free, which simplifies timing for those able to proceed without standard mortgage lending.
